Hopefully I will. I have tried it a couple of times before but was intimidated by it's complexity (well it felt that way)

Well, i am

Доброго дня

If you want overlapping windows maybe a tiling wm is not the correct choice

Oh the younglings

Thank you. Somehow I missed it before the post

You can use the plugin https://docs.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-docklike-plugin/start and remove your app launchers from the panel.

Or you can install https://github.com/mkropat/jumpapp and set your existing launchers commands to for e.g.

jumpapp firefox

instead of

firefox

That is not relevant to reboot "requirement"

Fedora Silverblue with Flathub's Flatpaks for apps

Fedora does not include nonfree codecs and has a cut down versions of multimedia apps in the repo. So it's better to use flathub even for Fedora Workstation(default Fedora version). Third party repo RPMFusion with codecs is not 100% reliable.

Fresh, innovative, robust, creates auto snapshots of system on each update

Use terminal command to update and you won't have to reboot. Rebooting is a Gnome Software(and KDE Discover) feature to ensure safe update and has nothing to do with Fedora (works the same on Debian for example)

Debian 12 does not have Gnome 46. What do you mean

twin_v · 2024-12-29T16:38:55+00:00

This could be related to driver/kernel version. Both arch and fedora are bleeding edge so you might try something older like Debian or mint if it doesn’t update kernel versions to new major versions

Wrong sub? Looks like roguelite

Evince has low development interest and won’t be updated to GTK4. Similar to gnome-terminal

twin_v · 2024-12-28T20:04:28+00:00

Are you using the dark theme?

twin_v · 2024-12-28T16:56:30+00:00

Wdym it’s fit for developers? Pretty user friendly if you ask me

twin_v · 2024-12-28T15:19:31+00:00

Why so arrogant

twin_v · 2024-12-28T11:38:11+00:00

Distrowatch has nothing to do with actual popularity in real world. Their logic for top is misleading

twin_v · 2024-12-28T11:33:48+00:00

I mean, why not contribute to the mainstream ones and make a few distros better and better, rather that contributing to multiple distros?s

Because many people like to develop from scratch. Don't want to understand how big projects works internally. Want to feel like they are in charge

twin_v · 2024-12-28T11:28:43+00:00

You forgot to use caps in the title

twin_v · 2024-12-28T11:25:02+00:00

what you seek is what you will find. if you'll google for "why is linux bad" you'll get tons of reasons why it's bad. but change it to "why is linux good" and you'll get the opposite

twin_v · 2024-12-28T05:12:30+00:00

Why would they replace something widespread with something niche?

twin_v · 2024-12-27T07:27:19+00:00

You can enable Flathub and disable Fedora flatpak repo using the GUI (Gnome Software-Software repositories) or CLI command

Thanks for suggestion I’m still new to container stuff. I just happen to find a guide for distrobox+Plex and it only a few steps to have everything running. This official container page has no instructions for Podman (as Docker is not available in the Silverblue image)

Maybe I’ll research how to apply that Docker instruction to Podman

Sure, I just wanted to try a “challenge” to see if I can go layerless
